A system dynamics model to explore the water-land-energy-food-climate nexus in Latvia

Masia S., (Corresponding) Susnik J., Indriksone D., Bremere I., Vamvakeridou-Lyroudia L., Brouwer F.
Topic: 
Water, energy and/or food nexus
Water, energy, food/land use and climate are connected a system defined by complexity, feedback and delay, and are commonly referred to as the nexus which operates across scales. Therefore the characteristics of the nexus change depending on the scale being considered, the location, and the sectors...Read more

Energy recovery from urea in decentralised wastewater streams

Asiain-Mira R., Zamora P., Rogalla F., Monsalvo V., (Corresponding) Torrente-Murciano L.
Topic: 
Water, energy and/or food nexus
This work presents the design of a new process that enables energy recovery from wastewater, based on the selective adsorption of urea from urine and its subsequent decomposition into hydrogen. Removal of nitrogen compounds is at the core of wastewater treatment, as their uncontrolled discharge...Read more
